For a country with fewer than 2 million people, Latvia has an outsized history and a surprising presence in the Pacific NW. Latvians in Seattle enjoy a welcoming atmosphere with several Latvian community organizations. Cabbage soup, beans, and grey peas have not exactly jumped to the top of the culinary popularity charts, but a Latvian or dedicated Baltic fan can surely find the ingredients and specialty shops to recreate the tastes of home in Seattle. Seattleites can also revel in Latvian handiwork at local festivals, including an annual Latvian Christmas Market.
Latvia has one Honorary Consul in the United States, located in Philadelphia at https://www.latvia-philadelphia.org/consular-information
